I wonder if they all get to vote when they get to the front
I think the line is really long
I wonder how lon
I think the people are sad they doen't get treated equally

There are many examples of discrimination in this book, here are a few that I found. When Dorothy went to vote the secratery didn't let her in and ignored her. I think this means that the lady think she is better than Dorothy so she doesn't have to give her any respect. When the lady at the voting booth finally let Dorothy in she grimaced at the sight of Dorothy like she is disgusted by her very prescence. Also, they charged Dorothy five dollars which was nearly impossible for her to pay because back then that was a lot of money. The owners did this because they knew it was an amount that most African Americans couldn't afford to pay. The people who owned the voting booth typed the form without the letter b to make it harder for the colored poeple to read. Also, when the secretary lady was finished smoking her cigarette she would throw it on the African American side of the voting area instead of throwing it away. Also, when Dorothy kicked the door the lady wrote down her liscense place number and then made a call. Shortly after that Dorothys husband got a threatened to be fired unless his wife stopped trying to vote. In conclusion, there were many examples of discrimination in The Tugging String so far.

There is a lot of discrimination in this book. This is an example I found. On Bloody Sunday the troopers did terrible things to the blacks. An example is one of the Posseman chased a black into a church and threw him into a glass wall. That made me realize how scary that time was.
